J&J's Dark Side: What They Don't Want You to Know

Anonymous employee

CEO approval
Business Outlook

Pros

If you are looking for a job, this is one.

Cons

Base salaries here are below market average, and career advancement appears to be heavily influenced by management's personal opinions, rather than demonstrable skills. Johnson & Johnson values unwavering loyalty, even at the expense of skill development. The work environment is quite toxic, with a strong emphasis on internal competition. Employees are expected to consistently praise management decisions, and any form of criticism is generally unwelcome. The company's health insurance benefits are inadequate. Be prepared for a total compensation package that falls short of initial expectations. J&J is mandating a return to the office, which forces some employees to commute significant distances. Technology and infrastructure are lagging, resulting in frequent, minor technical issues. There's also a noticeable pattern of shifting roles and promotions to resources in Asia. I would advise against pursuing employment with this company.

Toxic sexist workplace

Pros

Excellent pipeline of oncology therapies

Cons

Culture is dehumanizing. Toxic bullying male leadership promotes their “good ole buddy” network at the expense of empathetic female leadership. Leadership has a distain for knowledgeable clinical oncology strength. HR is very aware of these male leaders and has protected them for years.

Pros

Centrally located, close to residential areas, shopping, and easy access to major highways.

Cons

In the Microbiology department, there is a prevalent issue of employees frequently making sexually explicit comments, which is highly inappropriate and concerning. Racial and religious negative comments are unfortunately very common. Management's disconnection from the activities within the department is evident, as their primary focus appears to be solely on increasing the workload rather than understanding and supporting the team.
